Michael Jackson — This Is It

Millennium Dome · London Concert Visuals · Feature Film Dir. Kenny Ortega

Large-screen motion graphics for the Michael Jackson concert

Stimulated Inc. hired me to create large-screen motion graphics for the Michael Jackson concert at the Millennium Dome in London, initially titled "The Dome Project." I worked on the J5 Medley, Dangerous, and Off the Wall visuals.

After the tragic death of Michael Jackson, I reprised my role for the movie "This Is It," directed by Kenny Ortega — working closely with Production Designer Michael Cotton to finish the previous version of the J5 Medley look.

I also completed the visualization for Lightman, started during the tour by artist Scott Pagano — a design for an actual object being fabricated: a complete costume of flexible L.E.D. fabric wrapped around a model.
